At first, I read this as "I had to grow up and buy a brown dress."

I'll just have to start posting all sorts of inflammatory political posts during your work day so that you won't be able to resist checking in at the LoT.

Ps. Regarding work and LoT access, You are familiar with windows "Remote Desktop Connection" aren't you?

Right about now, his co-workers are starting to notice a distinct ham smell in the building.

I really don't have anything else to say.

Sounds like it can only get better from here.

I'm sure the rest of the week will get better and in a month you will look back at this and laugh.
At least I hope so.
Because I feel kind of bad for you right now.

To hell with scaeagles ... what's this "Remote Desktop Connection" thingy??????

(not that he can't use it, too, if it pans out)

First days always make you feel like a dummy, no matter what you're doing. It's all very unfamiliar and I know I always feel like an idiot no matter what I do.

Hang in there. It WILL get better.

BarTopDancer · 08-14-2006, 08:11 PM

Aww. I'm sure it's not nearly as bad as you think.

Remote Desktop is a way to connect to your computer from another computer, or for others to connect to your computer from another computer. Once logged in you will see your desktop, your pograms, your comptuer. It needs your IP address and a password. I think only XP Pro has it.

I want this. I think it is important to see what pograms I'm involved with at all times.

innerSpaceman · 08-14-2006, 08:36 PM

Ah, yes, now that I recall, it does need XP Pro, which I don't have. And, I'd have to leave the remote computer on all day just so's I could have access to it ... and through it's own internet connection back out the LoT, thwarting my office's firewall?????

Eh, I think a wifi laptop at work is still a better idea.

Oh, is this thread about Leo?

sorry.
